Nani will give Sir Alex Ferguson another attacking option on Sunday after overcoming a recent foot injury. The Portuguese winger will compete for a place with fellow wingers Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia, both of whom scored in Monday night's 2-0 win at Blackburn. "Nani has trained all week," revealed Sir Alex at his Good Friday press conference. "He's a good addition [to the squad], he's such a talented player. His return makes the squad stronger. We need a strong squad now with three games in seven days. Having more players means I can change the team around for those games." Sir Alex added that Anderson and Michael Owen are still not available for a game that he expects to be difficult. "The game against QPR will be another like we experienced on Monday against a team fighting for their survival. They’re never easy – it wasn’t easy on Monday, but we managed to get a fantastic result with late goals. I don’t mind if we have to wait until the last 10 minutes again to win on Sunday. QPR have had two fantastic results in their last two games, beating Liverpool after being 2-0 down and then beating Arsenal 2-1. "Knowing how Sparky [Mark Hughes] is and what a fighter he is we know his team will fight. Most teams mirror their manager anyway. So as much as we’re looking forward to the game, it’s going to be a hard one."
